This paper describes the efficiency of VLSI architecture for UMHexagonS (hybrid Unsymmetrical cross Multi Hexagon grid Search) matching algorithm. This algorithm is used for ME (Motion Estimation) of H.264/AVC video compression standard. The UMHexagonS is called a hybrid algorithm since it uses different kinds of searching patterns. VLSI architecture based on UMHexagonS is designed to provide a good tradeoff between gate sizes and high throughput. We implemented this architecture with about 309 K gates and 1/1792 throughput [block/cycle] for a search range of 16 and 44 macro blocks using synthesizable Verilog HDL.
